This LoopCV review comes down to one number on its pricing page: "up to 100 applications or emails per month" on the $19.99 plan, and 300 on the two plans above it. LoopCV is a job search bot based in Thessaloniki, Greece. You set up saved searches it calls loops, and it applies to matching roles and emails recruiters for you every day. Its Trustpilot score is a respectable 3.8, and the support team gets real praise. But the cap counts emails and applications together, the same page quotes two different starting prices, and the refund window closes once you have used a tenth of your quota.
A disclosure before the detail: ApplyEze makes a competing product, a desktop app that applies to jobs for you. We have tried to review LoopCV the way we would want ours reviewed. Every price and quote below was read on LoopCV's own pages on 17 October 2026, and where LoopCV is cheaper or does something we do not, we say so.
How LoopCV works
LoopCV's job seeker page describes the setup: you upload your CV once, tell it the role, location and salary range you want, and "every day it scans LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Workday, Greenhouse and 30+ more, and queues every new matching opening for application."
Each saved search is a loop. A loop sends applications through three channels. The same page says "LoopCV fills out ATS forms, sends recruiter outreach emails and applies through LinkedIn, using your real CV and your real details."
Three other parts matter:
- A Chrome extension called the Loopcv Apply Tool, for boards where you have to log in. The pricing page FAQ says it lets LoopCV "apply on your behalf without ever asking for your username or password."
- CV testing. LoopCV "tracks open rates, reply rates and interview requests for each CV version and each job board", so you can run two versions of your CV and see which gets replies.
- A dashboard and kanban board for replies and interview requests, plus an "Exclude Companies" setting so a loop skips employers you name.
That combination of loops, email outreach and A/B testing CVs is the real difference between LoopCV and the tools that only fill forms. It is also where most of the questions in this review come from.
Pricing and what counts toward the cap
These are the plans on LoopCV's pricing page as of October 2026, shown in US dollars from a US connection.
| Plan | Price | Loops | Cap per month | Job boards | Cost per send at the cap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Looper | Free | 1 | 10 applications or emails | 3 | $0 |
| Standard Looper | $19.99 a month | up to 20 | 100 applications or emails | 20 | $19.99 / 100 = about $0.20 |
| Premium Looper | $59.99 a month | up to 50 | 300 applications or emails | 20 | $59.99 / 300 = about $0.20 |
| Done For You | $89.99 a month | as Premium | 300 (everything in Premium) | 20 | $89.99 / 300 = about $0.30 |
What each tier adds:
- Standard adds remote search "anywhere in the world", a custom email address and up to 10 AI-powered CV Checks.
- Premium adds "auto-fill screening questions with AI", "Job Sourcing from Companies' Career Pages", priority support and up to 30 CV Checks.
- Done For You adds "1 advisory call/week", "CV improvements for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)", loop optimization, weekly performance checks and "job collection every hour".
The phrase to read twice is "applications or emails". It is one allowance. If a loop emails a recruiter and also submits the form for the same role, the wording reads as two sends out of your hundred. If you lean on outreach, the number of actual applications you get for $19.99 is lower than 100, and LoopCV's page does not say how the split usually falls.
The per-send figures in the table assume you use the whole cap. Use half and each send costs twice as much. For how this compares across the category, our AI auto apply cost per application post runs the same math for twenty tools.
Where the pricing page contradicts itself
The table and the FAQ below it on the same page do not agree on four points.
| Topic | Pricing table | FAQ on the same page |
|---|---|---|
| Lowest paid price | $19.99 a month | "Paid plans start from €9.99/month" |
| Premium volume | "up to 300 applications or emails per month" | "Premium users can receive applications to hundreds of matching roles per week" |
| Free plan volume | "up to 10 applications or emails per month" | applies to "a set number of matching jobs per day" |
| Free plan reach | "3 job boards" | the free plan "scans 30+ job boards daily" |
The FAQ also contrasts the "Free and Pro plans" and attributes CV Checks to "Pro and Premium". No plan in the table is called Pro.
The marketing pages add a fifth number. LoopCV's AI job application agent page compares manual applying with its agent and puts the agent at "50" to "200 relevant roles applied to automatically" a week. The largest published cap is 300 a month. A month is about 4.3 weeks, so 300 a month is about 70 a week, and 200 a week would be about 860 a month. Paid plans also list 20 job boards while the marketing copy says "30+".
None of this proves anything is wrong with the service. It does mean the pricing table is the only place with firm numbers, and it is the one to hold LoopCV to. Take a screenshot of it on the day you subscribe.
Tailoring: claimed versus listed
The agent page makes a strong claim: "AI rewrites and optimizes your CV for each job description", pulling in "the right keywords so you pass ATS filters", and it "Generates a unique cover letter for every application using AI".
The pricing table never lists per-job CV tailoring as a plan feature. What it lists is a monthly count of "AI-powered CV Checks" (2, 10, 30 and 50 by tier), an "AI CV Builder" on paid plans, and "CV improvements for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)" on Done For You. The FAQ defines a CV Check as an analysis of "your resume's structure, content, and keywords" with suggestions, which is a review, not a rewrite per posting. A cover letter generator appears as a separate tool in the site footer.
So whether a $19.99 loop sends a CV rewritten for each posting, or the CV you uploaded, is not something the pricing page settles. If tailoring is why you are buying, ask support which plan rewrites the CV per job, then check a few sent applications in your dashboard.
One more thing to know about the agent page: it says applications go out "through company career pages, ATS portals and LinkedIn Easy Apply". LinkedIn's User Agreement, effective November 3, 2025, says in section 8.2 that members will not "Use bots or other unauthorized automated methods to access the Services". If your LinkedIn account matters to you, weigh that before switching on LinkedIn applying in any tool. We look at the channel itself in does LinkedIn Easy Apply work.
Refunds
The refund rule is in the pricing FAQ: "We offer refunds within 7 days of purchase if you have not used more than 10% of your plan's application quota."
Two conditions, and both have to hold. The arithmetic is short:
- Standard Looper: 10% of 100 is 10 applications or emails.
- Premium Looper and Done For You: 10% of 300 is 30.
Loops send automatically every day. If you set up several loops on day one, you can pass 10 sends on Standard before you have looked closely at where they went. If you are unsure, start with one narrow loop for the first few days, review what it sent, and decide inside the window.
The FAQ adds that you can cancel at any time from account settings and keep access until the end of the billing period, and that a student discount exists.
What users report
Trustpilot. On 17 October 2026 LoopCV's Trustpilot profile, claimed since October 2020, showed a TrustScore of 3.9 from 131 reviews (3.8 from 132 on 9 November 2026). The October split was 64% five-star, 8% four-star, 3% three-star, 5% two-star and 20% one-star. The reviews split hard: most are five stars, and one in five is a single star, which suggests the tool works well for some searches and badly for others.
The ten most recent reviews, from January to September 2026, break down this way:
- Support is the most common praise. Several reviewers mention quick, patient help with setup and onboarding, and one review in January 2026 says the setup help is what made the tool work.
- The platform and dashboard. An August 2026 review calls the platform more stable and says multiple loops are easier to manage. A July 2026 review singles out the inbound dashboard.
- Bugs and manual work. An August 2026 one-star review says the tool has many bugs and needs a lot of manual work.
- The free plan is thin. A September 2026 review praises support but calls the free plan very limited.
- No matches. An April 2026 one-star review says the platform found no matches for the reviewer's CV and asked for a free trial; LoopCV's reply says a refund was being processed.
Reddit. In a r/AIJobApplications post comparing ten job search tools, the writer found LoopCV's email outreach interesting but was wary of sending large numbers of similar messages to recruiters, and thought the interface felt dated. That is the fair worry about outreach at volume: a recruiter who gets the same template from several candidates in a day learns to skip it. LoopCV's own FAQ says generic messages can be edited before they are sent, and it is worth doing.
Who LoopCV suits
LoopCV fits you if:
- you want to test outreach emails to recruiters alongside applications,
- you want to compare two CV versions by reply rate,
- your search runs through LinkedIn, Indeed and Glassdoor, and you accept the account risk above, or
- you want a free plan to try first, or a paid plan under $20 a month.
It fits less well if:
- you want every one of your sends to be a submitted application,
- you need a tailored CV per posting and cannot confirm your plan does it, or
- you want to watch each form being filled, in a browser on your own machine, before it goes.
How ApplyEze differs
We said at the top that we make a competing product, so here is the contrast plainly. New accounts get 50 free credits, once per email address, with no card, and a credit is used only when an application is confirmed as submitted. List prices are Starter at $19 a month for 700 and Pro at $99 a month for 3,000. Credits count applications, not emails. At full use that is 2.7 cents an application on Starter ($19 / 700) and 3.3 cents on Pro ($99 / 3,000), against about 20 cents a send at LoopCV's caps. But LoopCV's free plan keeps going at 10 applications or emails a month, where ApplyEze's free credits come once, so if you only send a few applications a month, LoopCV costs less. LoopCV also says it tracks replies in one dashboard, where on ApplyEze you record replies yourself.
What those plans buy is different in kind. ApplyEze writes a resume for every posting, as PDF and DOCX, reads each file back with a parser check before upload, and writes a cover letter when the form asks. It brings the posting's named skills and tools onto your skills line, even when your own record does not list them. There is no step to remove one before a live run, so use a dry run to see what it writes, and be ready to discuss anything on the page. A certification the posting asks for is not added unless you hold it. Your employers, job titles, dates, schools, degrees and certifications come from your own record, and code rejects a rewrite that adds a figure, employer, school or credential your record does not hold. ApplyEze completes applications on 12 platforms: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Oracle Recruiting Cloud, JazzHR, BambooHR, Rippling, Pinpoint and Recruitee (Workday and Oracle need a connected application inbox). It runs on your own Mac or Windows machine in a visible browser, so the computer has to stay on and awake, has a dry-run mode that fills the form and never clicks Submit, and has duplicate detection built to stop double applications. It does not do recruiter outreach or LinkedIn applying, which LoopCV does.
